In this special Sunday episode of The Write Question, our production team—Lauren Korn, host and co-producer; Peter Hoag, co-producer and editor; and Tom Berich, sound engineer—gathers some of our favorite moments from 2021.
The TWQ team would like to thank John Floridis, whose music provides the soundtrack for our show. A heartfelt thanks, also, to Beth Anne Austein, our previous sound engineer who retired this year—a wonderful and unwavering teacher-mentor of all things MTPR, a unifying force and tireless worker in the studio. And, as always, we want to thank our listeners for supporting us through another year of books and conversation: Thank you for listening.
